Bandits operating in Zamfara State have forced villagers in Tofa community in Magami district of Gusau Local Government Area of Zamfara State to desert

According to them, they have written severally to the state Commissioner for Internal Security and Internal Affairs, DIG Mamman Tsafe, to deploy security operatives to the area but all to no avail.

The community members lamented that they have been facing serious attacks by the suspected bandits, pointing out that this has forced the residents of the community to desert the community to seek refuge in places that are relatively safe in the state. The villagers also cried out, saying that they were facing hunger and starvation which they said is occasioned by the ransom and levies paid to the bandits to secure the freedom of their kidnapped relatives and to access their farmlands to harvest their crops.

According to some women from the village, “we are living at Tofa in Magami district and we have been praying for God to see us through but the situation is worsening by the day.
